Despite a 35-minute rain delay, Coon Rapids won an offensive showcase, 17-11, on Friday afternoon.

Each team had 12 hits, but Coon Rapids had a pair of three-run home runs, and used a nine-run third inning to take a lead it would not relinquish.

Devin Croal and Mike Latta hit homers for the Minnesotans Tony Remund and Jeremy Oakley led the way with two hits each.

Sam Sopko went 3-for-5 with four RBI, Brody Miller had two doubles and two RBI and Robby King also had two hits for Missoula.

Cheyenne 8, Rocky Mountain 0

Post 6 routed the team from Fort Collins, 8-0, in five innings Friday afternoon at the Black Hills Community Bank Firecracker Tournament.

The bottom four hitters in the Cheyenne order went 7-for-11, as Luke Haugh, Andrew Fanning and Cody Farrell all had two hits.

Merced 7, Cheyenne 6

Merced, Calif., scored two runs in the bottom of the seventh inning, rallying for a 7-6 win over Cheyenne, Wyo., on Friday night.
